Against the general neglect of attention phenomena in linguistics,
this study, anchored in Cognitive Semantics, offers a first
systematic adaptation of Leonard Talmy's groundbreaking model of
linguistic attention, applied to Webbased data of English from an
emerging lexical network of emo(tion). Some fifty basic
attention-related factors combine to yield increasingly complex
patterns of interaction, convergence, and conflict affecting all
levels of linguistic recombination, from simplex morphemes up to
the text format. Differences in attentional profiles of linguistic
representations may well account for conceptual alternativity,
another fundamental cognitive principle in language: In their
verbal interactions, interlocutors, in production and reception,
will have to attend to bottom-up mechanisms and top-down strategies
of attention in organizing conceptual content and conveying subtle
ceptions of reality.
